The Schedule referred'to in these Lei-.ters Patent making parto! the same.

I, SCHAMU MORITZ Moscncowl'rz, of the city,

county, and State of New York,have invented anew and useful Attachment to Sewing-Machines, of which the lfollowing is av specification.

Nature and Object of the Invention.

- ing. I therefore call it a piping-attachment. I do not intend to connue my improvement to such purposes entirely, but intend to use it for leather tubes orhose, audfor various purposes.v

DescriptionA of the Drawing.

vFigure l is atop or plan view of the attachment: as

it is upon the machine, ready for use.

Figure 2, a top view,showing the attachment open,

. o1' with the cover removed.

v to a Wheeler du Wilson sewing-machine, but it can be fitted upon any machine I desire.

A is the frame, which is screwed down 'upon the cloth-plate ofthe machine, and secures the attachment in its proper position.

B, the arm ofthe cover orguide which closes over and holds and guides it to the action of the needle. i

C, the curved guideor cover that holds the material in place upon the pipe or tube E, that governs the size of the tube to be made, andl through whichA itis turned and fed as fast as it is stitched.

D, the aim or brace, supporting pipe E on one edge,

'and the othcr'upou which the'cover B is hinged, at@

although I do not always hinge the cover, asit is not necessary, especially in small-sized attachments.v

E, the pipe or tube which sizes and shapes the piping, and through which it is turned a-s it is sewed,

G, the'hole through which the needle operates.

a and a' are the holes through which it is screwed upon the cloth-plate of the sewing-machine.

The 'operation of my attachment isas follows:

I fasten the frame A upon the cloth-plate of themaf chine, at a,and, when it is providedwith a hinge, open it, as shown in fig. 2. The material,` being cut the necessary width, is thenplaced around the pipe E in such manner that both edges come inside the pipe suficieut toreceice the action ofthe needle, space being provided for the purpose; the cover G is closed over the pipe, holding the material upon it, the end of the material being turned and drawn asbort distance into the small end of the tube, which may be done by a thread passing through t/he pipe attached thereto, by whichthe operator will guide the/material, as fast as sewed, through the tube..

)If it is desiredtofill the piping, or stuitl it, as is sometimes done, t give ita round appearance, an end of wicking or cord can be entered into it at the small end ofthe pipe, and the piping will be sewed, and turned, and delivered from the large end of the pipe, with the stung inside.

The machine, being threaded, will be put iu operation. .The needle, operating upon the material th rough the needle-hole G, forms the seam, and the feed of the machine, moving the material, as it is sewed, toward the end of the pipe, where it enters and is turned, forces it through the pipe in the opposite direction, and thus forms the tube or piping, having the filling made inside, if desired, and delivered ready for use.

Claim.

i I claim as my invention- Y An attachment for a sewing-machine, for automatically sewing and turning a tube simultaneously, sub-l stantially such -as described.
